Olech, Lisa A. Captains of the scarlet night #book 1

In the bustling restaurants, shops, and cafš of Portland, Oregon, things really heat up for the hard-working men behind the scenes when the holidays come into town . . . For a stationery store owner, the holidays are great for business. But for Hollis Alcott, Christmas reminds him of the tragic events of three years past, and the last thing he wants to do is take part in Portland's over-abundance of festive cheer. But Sawyer Murphy, a hunky gift shop owner whose brother is married to Hollis's sister, has made it his mission to pluck Hollis out of his holiday blues. And his plan is beginning to work. Wrapped in the warm glow of newfound passion, the former business rivals hit up Portland's finest holiday traditions-and Hollis's icy attitude begins to melt like snowflakes on his tongue. But he isn't sure he can trust anyone with the only gift he has-his heart-without breaking it like an antique ornament. Unless he can find the courage to take a leap with the one lover he never expected
